- INSPIRATION FOR THIS VIDEO- • REACTING TO OUR SUBSCR...
For the record, I spent ~6 hours editing this video. I apologize in advance if there are any editing errors or items that are not correctly synced, my editing software is awful and when a video hits the 20-30min mark it has a hard time letting me preview things before exporting.
Anyway, here is the video you've been waiting for! Sorry for it being a day late. This was super fun to film and I'd love to do more in the future. If I came off as mean in any way on some of these set ups, know that it was not my intention! I just want to help, and if a set up requires multiple suggestions, it sometimes can come off as me being a "know it all"
I simply want to help you improve. You did submit your set up for critique, and critique I will! Enjoy,

Hi 👋🏻 I’ve gotten a lot of comments on this video claiming free roam is impossible while working or going to school full time. I’ve worked full time and did school part time all while allowing 24/7 free roam for my ferrets. It’s very doable.
Please refrain from leaving a snarky comment assuming that I don’t work for a living! I had a ferret safe space for them to be out in while at work.
Pazuandfriends could you tell me how too free roam safely
Because I go too school and I’m hoping too get ferrets 😀😃
i love your phone case
im scared to free roam.. its just if i do get ferrets like ive been planning though it could be a few years, what if they are destructive and need to be watched whenever they're out?
could you do a video on how to ferret proof your house so they dont ruin things or get hurt? sowy xD i need more info on that subjectt, then free roaming will feel safe :3
You reacted to my Set Up, it was the very first one!! And I will remove the kong rubber chew!
I loved your set up!!
Thats cool rubber they can swallow it clog it up but hey congrats on having a ferret I am not going to get one because I know I couldn’t take care of one so I wont because of that but when I save the money and have enough money and time I will get one.
Yes I replied to a six month old comment
LEGOLegendbawse lol
LEGOLegendbawse I be replying to 3 year old comments 😂😅
no one:
Literally no one:
Oppa: rips the tape off the cabinet
Islander Ferrets he’s so crazy 😂
@Ella Davis me too lmao
Amy no it’s oppa...
@@Pazuandfriends my ferret tried to bite me the other day omg it was the saddest most perthetic bite ever lol.
Jupiter_Ash wdym saddest and most pathetic?
this was really good to watch, iv not yet started building my ferrets' home, got broad concept. Was just really helpful seeing so many internal set-ups, cheers
I built mine with pvc pipe and chicken wire. Cut plastic totes up to use for the platforms.
You should make a video on the hygiene essentials that you use for your ferrets.
I remember how much me and my ferrets hated keeping them caged- making Pete and Luna free roam ferrets was the best decision I ever made! Good video though :)
Me too! Perfecto✌️🤟
I really wanted to send my ferret setup but I didn’t see the post 😢 next time🤞🤞
Bruno’s Exotics this video seems popular, so I will probably make another one! It just took a very long time to edit. I may take less submissions next time. :) I’ll make a post when I plan on doing a new one.
Bryn Katharine sounds good!
I've watched this soo many times it's so amazing and it helped me so much with my cage
@@Pazuandfriends please make a part to i dmed you on instagram @lataiyahhhh xx
I love how you mentioned Lennon the Bunny I just started watching ferret UA-camrs considering I'm getting a ferret for my birthday (Oct 22) and you have taught me a lot like I did not know ferrets were carnivores.
Pizza Pizza hey, how’s the ferret? also where did u get it from cus i want a ferret for my bday too but all my local petshops sell marshall ferrets :(
@@zee444 pls get 2 ferrets
They are absolutely social animals and they can get depressed when they are alone
Even if you are with them all day.
I am getting one next christmas so im doing the same thing!
@@emma-pk8jr Please don not get one
They are social animals and they absolutely NEED a ferret-friend
You're in school, you can't be with the ferret all day and in a few years you have to study and then you maybe loose interest and the ferret will be alone all day
Pls get him or her a friend
Otherwise it's cruel
@@kohlenhydrat2665 Im going to have it for 1 year then i am getting a 2nd one.
I've noticed after being in a cage for longer than usual my ferret started flipping her bowls over so I allowed her out even more than before and she has stopped! Some advice in case anyone is dealing with something similar .
Yes!! It also cuts back on cage rage. If I ever need to cage them they go in just fine and go right to sleep, no raging or making messes...just sleep! They learn they will be let out again shortly after.
@@Pazuandfriends l
Shoot, I missed the submission request for this video. There were some great setups! It makes me happy to see people going above and beyond to make their pets happy.
My two ferrets have their own room in the house for free-play at least 6 hours a day, usually more. Their cage is actually one I created by removing the side panels on two Kaytee ferret towers and zip-tying them together. It's huge, and I jokingly refer to it as "Mega-Cage". Haha. I'm always on the look-out for new enrichment ideas, thank you for the reminder about dig boxes! I will be making one for my boys 😊
Brittany B Nice work!! Happy you liked the video. I’ll make another one of these in the future!
Hello i asked earlier how to convence my parents to get me a ferret but now that i have my own room so i could keep my ferrets in there
Yes you can, as long as it's safe!
Yes i will make it ferret safe
My family don't do that
I don't have my own room
maybe I'm no "old" enough
Pine The sarcastic well you said no instead of not-
@@lovelyashy643 you said "sad" instead of said 🤦🏼♂️
My mom got me a ferret but I can’t see him till Christmas because he live with my mom his name is max you are very helpfull so when I m meat him I know how to take care of him ❤️☺️
Since this is your most recent video, I just wanted to let you know that I actually didn't know ferret cages were a thing until about a year or two ago. When I was a kid, my aunt's ferrets were 100% free roam and I thought that was the normal approach. Now that I know more about ferrets, I firmly believe that they should be caged at night or when you aren't home just for their own safety. HOWEVER, if you are home and not asleep, those ferrets better be out and about. I agree with you that 4 hours of free roam isn't enough, but I actually feel like 6 hours should be the bare minimum
Great Video 👍 very informative for the new ferret owners. There's so much involved with these little carpet sharks and it's so wonderful of you to educate ppl on all the important needs, safty and health issues on them. You cover so much and thank you for that. A Happy Ferret Is A Happy Life 🐾🐾
Thanks Nadine!!

@@nicolleb5967 we know, people read stuff wrong. 👁👄👁
I loved this video it was great & l don't even have a ferret! 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you!! x
Lol same I don’t have a ferret but I want pne
16:46 My first ferret, Oolong, was a nutcase. There was a point when my health made me incapable of giving her more than an hour free roam and she used all of it. There was also I point she got 6-8 hours free roam, and she still used all of it. If she started to drift of and the tiniest thing happened she would ping back up like she hadn't been awake 6 hours- crazy little thing
Loved this video! A quick question: would you consider a spacious master bedroom, walk in closet and attached bathroom enough space for free roaming?
Depends on the size of the room! Should be enough. As long as you add lots of enrichment!
You're so helpful and I showed you too my friend! (Islander Ferrets) You've seen her because she sends me pictures of you replying to her comments haha! We're getting ferrets in November and you're videos are our 'go-to' source of help!
Her:I was watching Lennon the bunny and I know nothing about bunny’s
Me:🤯😳😱
Me:I know too much about bunny’s
Same I did so much research. And I'm planning on getting a bunny
I think that your channel is underrated because you are giving so much needed information for those who are looking to get a ferret or those who own a ferret. I think it's great that you're doing this. You're really helping me prepare for the responsibilities for these little critters
Who else saw her ferret at the back trying to open the cupboard when she didn’t realise🤣🤧🥺
I really wish I had found your channel earlier! I would have loved to submit my ferret setup to see what pointers you can give me. I already love your channel so much (I've been trying to find a ferret centered pet youtuber for ages) and I'm definitely going to be taking some of these pointers and applying them to my fuzzies setups
I am so glad I came across this video!! I had no idea the water bottles do that to their teeth!! I showed my husband and he immediately took it out and put a temporary bowl out room. This video had so much info in it. Thank You ❤️
The least hours is 10 for my ferrets they are usually out of the cage 24 seven
I love the way you explain and how kind you are thanks for your help!
I’m a rat mom but I love watching your videos even though I have no intentions of getting a ferret. I love the information you provide (for example I didn’t know they need so much free roam time!) Side note: I love your glasses 🥰 much love from the rat community
I've been setting up the habitat for my first ferret, and this video was insanely helpful in terms of prioritizing and safety. Thank you!
I wanna thank you, You are one of the main people I go to for info on ferrets! 2nd day with my friends and I’m already attached and your knowledge differently helped! I’m thinking about switching my ferret to whole prey raw feed diet. And tomorrow going to take legs off my couches and stuff to further ferret proof their free roam area! Keep the videos coming. You’re amazing! Thank you for helping with tips and tricks to keep my buddies safer!
8:45 you ferret behind🥰🥰🥺🥺☺️☺️😂🤣😅
I get a lot of anxiety that in not taking the best care of my ferrets i have 2 and their cage is kinda small i would say a bit smaller then the ferret nation cages but they get 7 hours at least for play time and have lots of tubes, i would hate to treat my bbs wrong so i hope this is ok
sweet_yums xo since the cage is small I would give them about 7-8 hrs so yep!
PLEASE do another one of these
Great video idea. Loved seeing all the different setups. Great ideas to improve mine.
Hi Bryn! I’m getting ferrets soon and was wondering if yo I had any starter ferret owner tips!
Olivia Atchue I do! Make sure that you have the cage setup already and make sure that you have the raw meet plan😊
@@fireballbruno9158 Perfectly said!! :)
Ferret proof everything!!
Is that your hegog
I only have one ferret at the moment but I'm working on getting a double ferret nation so I can adopt another lol.
When you said ferrets don’t need toys, it depends on the ferret. Some ferrets don’t play with them as much, but my ferret LOVES toys. He has little stuffed animals that he can’t sleep without. He uses it as comfort and warmth.
I meant moreso they don't need them in the cage :) I love having toys out for play time!
Oh alright! Also how should I have my ferret out and playing? My room isn’t good for him to be out in and I really have no way to barricade it, I was thinking getting my ferret a dog play pen so he can run around in there, but I just want to know if there might be a better way?
Also would you recommend ferret collars? I might want to get mine a collar I just don’t know if that is the best idea?
No ferret ever:
Literally no ferret in history:
Oppa: rips tape off of cabinet
I just got my ferret and I'm learning so much from you.. I'm working to free roaming 24/7 but for now they have a room I have the thru way tube and pop n play ball pit I threw away lots of the toys that came with them because they was tiny and easy to chock on.. I'm going to make a dig in box!!
is it ok for a ferret to have free roam time not through the whole house just in one room? cuz in the rest of my house there are lots of cords and really dirty
if that’s the safest spot that’s still good as long as there’s lots of things for them to do in there
omg thank you so much for this video i had no idea that water bowls were better
Super happy to see you advocating for plenty of free roam time!
Your vids are VERY helpful because i am going to get one very soon so i will know how to take care of one and how the bed set up and food should be thank you!!! 😌
Considering that next christmas i am getting a ferret, this is helpful!
Oppa in the background was so funny she is so cute!
8:39 APPA SCRATCHING THE CABINET LOL XD
By the way I love how the part of your house that you filmed I’m! It’s sooo cute looking! Oh and your phone case is so cute! I want one!
8:40 - 9:40 omg the ferret in the corner xD
Thanks for making this cause it helps me perfect my ferrets cage
Your channel has definitely taught me a lot about ferrets I have wanted to get one for a while now i will be getting 2 ferrets a 2 story cage a ferret room MANY TOYS and how ever many hours hopefully 24hours of free time thank you bryn🥰
These videos are very helpful because I’m trying to do some research before getting a ferret ! 😊
I used to have stuffed beds in my ferrets cages but then I noticed they’d always burrow into them and try to sleep in the stuffing. I quickly learned that they weren’t a good choice for my ferrets and they much prefer just mountains of blankets in their cage to burrow and sleep in. My ferrets always dig at the water bowls too so I’m gonna try that tip of clipping them up higher than usual to see if that helps any.
I personally only have my ferrets in the cage while im out. When im home its all free time. At night i leave the cage open so they can basically sleep where every they want and they are comfortable around the room from being out so often i also wake up at lease 2 hours earlier then i need to so we can get playtime in the morning. I feel like im doing a good job. 😊
Hopefully you're still checking comments, I keep getting different answers on if this is ok. I only let my ferrets out about 1-2 hours a day to play and roam the house but they have an entire 10×12 ft ferret proofed room to play in. They're in their cage overnight with no toys and let out in the morning. I work at home and check on them every couple hours. I have a toddler so I can't let them roam all the time because I'm afraid the baby will hurt them
I understand that you fear that ur toddler could hurt ur ferret. I'm not judging but wth my ferret bear for example. My place was ferret proofed n his cage I left open. At night I put him in his cage. I honestly don't think it's fair to him at all. Bc they have to be able to roam around for more than 4 hours. If that's case I'd tbh take him to a shelter.Bc it's not fair for toddler& ferrets need out play furbabies. ✌️✌️❤️
I love your channel, I’m getting a ferret soon and these videos help me a lot . I appreciate you.😌👌✨💕
What brand of cage was the second cage?
I'm trying to find a cage like the critter nation, just not as expensive! Please let me know if any of you know of some good sized cages like the critter nation that isn't so expensive
You don't really need a cage if you have your own room. What I am doing is not buying a cage so now it is a lot less cheap and you could use old blankets and only have to buy the ferret, food and water bowls, the food, and cleaning supplies. :) hope I helped you.
Hi, good idea, if you really want a critter nation, check goodwill, value village and craigslist as much as possible!!! I found my scn for only 50$ at goodwill just by luck one day!!!
My dad had a ferret in collage and once it fell out of his window (3 story’s high) when he was doing homework and it was perfectly fine they did take it to the vet to make sure but it was totally fine😂
I don’t have a ferret (yet) but from all the cage reviews and videos I’ve watched I’ve heard that the double ferret nation cage is the best option ( its about $240) but you can also buy the single ferret nation cage (it’s about $150) but I think it’s way to small for a ferret
I’m so glad I stumbled across your video. We just got a ferret and had several plushy and Crinkle dog toys in the cage that will be given to the dog now and removed from the cage. We also didn’t realize they could use a cat littler box. We bought feline pine litter in a corner pan and so far it’s used it reliably so. We will also increase the roaming time. Do you have any suggestions for roaming in a home with cats? I’ve been nervous to allow them to interact so far but we’ve only had ours for one day!
I’m getting ferrets soon and I’m having a shed built for them as I’m not aloud them in the house, it will be like 3 meters by 4m, do they need their own sleeping cage or just a bed/hammock sleeping area in the space?😁
Thanks for doing this vid. I wanted to see this because I want a ferret myself but my mom and dad don’t want to and plus I don’t think that I have a big enough room so I am trying to get my parents to say yes then I can move stuff and stuff like that
I was thinking of getting a ferret and this channel has given me so much information about them .
Make sure to get 2 or more
Yukii301 I will they are social I am getting two
I have questions
How often do you change the rice in the dig box?
What toys are ok to use?
Is having one ferret ok?
Can they play outside like in the dirt and snow?
Can they play with other pets like cats and dogs if they're gentle?
Are wooden/plastic hanging bird toys ok?
When and if I get a ferret the most time it can be out of the cage would be 5-6 hrs as I get at of school at 4 and I’m in bed at 9 but I go to sleep at 10 I guess I could put them away as soon as I go to bed but most likely I’d be to tired to put them away at 10 but this is such a good guide :)
i have a question i share a room ( my sister doesn’t mind) could i let them out of cage when i’m at school if it’s ferret safe or is that just in safe in general
Julia Crazy tube You CAN do this if the room is super safe. There are lots of articles online on ferret proofing. This is what I did when I lived at home, they were out 24/7 in my bedroom.
thank you and your fuzzies are so adorable ly
i’m getting ferrets next year but i still go to school, should i let them out when i wake up, put them back in when i go and let them out again when i come home?
should i give my ferret a water bottle like you would use for rabbits and stuff like that or a bowl ?
I would suggest a bowl purely because they are obligate carnivores (like cats) so their teeth may get damaged by a bottle x
When I saw your phone case I was like OH WOW
I totally agree with cage free roaming. Its just so important and my guys hated being locked up. I free roamed from day one, so they had my living room, carpet roll cage, crinkle tubes.
I think if ferrets could talk they would be screaming let me out!
Love your channel sooooo much and your ferrets are adorable
Hey! I am sorry I am very late to this video, but I need advice. I have had little to none experience with Ferrets. I was wonder, should I get one or two, and if two do I get a cage that has two parts or just one big one! I love your videos btw! ❤️❤️
how do you get your ferret to stop biting? mine is a baby that i got yesterday. but he bites hard. and i don’t want to make him aggressive and i want to discipline him the right way.
Hi just curious is a single critter nation enough for one ferret??? I might get a ferret but am trying to do a ton of research and am saving up😊
Hello! I love your videos, teach me too much. Can I make the structure of the cage out of wood or is it not advisable?
I tried using a normal litter box and the will go to the corner of the litter box and just poop on the edge or it just goes right over so I had to go with the largest corner litter pan I could find. I do still offer the cat box to then but they use the corner ones more now
How can you get them used to walking on a leash? Mine absolutely hate it
Cassedy Witwer I was wondering 2
NEVER WALK THEM ON A LEASH they are to fragile for a harness they are not dogs or cats plz dont
NEVER WALK THEM ON A LEASH they are to fragile for a harness they are not dogs or cats plz dont

Jaiden Stein that’s not true lmao
Question:I’m in secondary school and if I got a ferret I would have to keep it in its cage 7hours a day (when I’m at school) and do homework for about 2 hours which leaves me with about 3 1/2 hours with the ferret. Am I in the right conditions for a ferret?
So I let my ferret free roam my room all day. I don’t cage mine at all, but I make sure my room is well cleaned and baby proofed so I don’t have to worry about him when I’m gone. I would suggest that if you can’t give them 6 hours (in my opinion) free roam. I would reconsider another type of pet.
I'm moving to United States in some months, and I really want a pet ferret! I have watched a lot of ferret take care vids and I think I'm ready to take care of one :3 , I still need to watch more vids and stuff and I have watched your channel and that have help me learn more! A big thanks to you, can't wait to adopt a little ferret :D
Olive of course! Thanks for reminding, I’ll make some research first since I don’t wanna have a pet that I don’t even know how to take care of, I’m sad that they’re illegal in Cali :(
The cage is a 4 tear ferrit cage you can get it at petsmart I have one. With 3 ferrits works great. I let my ferrits free Rome from 6am to 10 pm in my room with lots of tunnels and runners.
I love your videos :) what are the tubes from the hardware store called?
I’m thinking about getting ferrets but I would have practice after school everyday till 6, do you think I can still do it?
I lived in a 2 bed flat and just gave my guys the flat, lock boxed everything I considered toxic, Hazardous. As I have home cinema I built my own.
I so love my guys and it was very challenging keeping them locked up, having 7.
I wish I had came across your UA-cam before you did this video. I would love to share my cage with everyone and hear your input.
I have a question,
I recently got my first ferret and the pet store owner was washing him a lot, like almost every day and he’s scratching a lot and producing a lot of stink because of it.
I was wondering if there was a way to help with the itching?
A Potato Ghost Yes ferrets should only be washed with soap once a year (or none at all- it’s not needed) and instead have oatmeal soaks but not frequently.
The only thing that will help restore the ferrets natural oils is not bathing him. Introduce fish oil like salmon into the diet as a treat. Feeding a healthy natural raw diet will eliminate maybe 80% of the ferrets smell.
how do i make a dig box and how do i prevent them throwing everything everywhere. my one ferret can’t use a litter box for this reason, he just sticks his head under and throws it everywhere
8:43
no one:
the ferret in the back : oohhhh im going to scratch this
Should i start with one or get a pair?
I have a Siberian Husky (Nanook)and an Orange Tabby (Thorne) and they’re both very sweet and gentle with each other. Thanks!
I have been looking for a ferret for a while and i already have the cage and...I had a couple rubber toys but I will be taking those out😊♥️
I have a question. Do your ferrets chew on the bowls? I was just wondering as I really want a ferret and don’t know if there is a material that is better maybe than plastic.
Hey I’m real late but I absolutely love your videos because they help me realize what I have done wrong. My ferret has a kaytee cage but I am saving enough for something better.
hello! quick question: I’ve been doing some research and have been thinking of getting a ferret, would the ferret nation single ‘unit’ be enough for one ferret? I’d probably be able to give them free-roam 4-5 hours (maybe more) during the week and all day during the weekends.
Ava Pappas hey! completely forgot I commented this but update- a few months ago I did end up getting my first ferret- she currents runs on at least 10+ hours of free roam a day (she’s only in her cage at night or if no ones home, which isn’t often). I’m hopefully going to get her a friend once corona calms down a bit but for now she’s the only one. now that I’m looking back, 4-5 hours isn’t ideal- glad I’ve grown since then.
Since my ferrets are now kept outside they have a quilt in their sleeping area that they snuggle in, since you dont recommend stuffed things do you think it's safe?
It depends, you can always take the stuffing out of the quilt and sew it back up.
Love this i wish I had a ferret!😭but i have 4 birds that step up and stuff
Quick question are rabbit cages ok for ferrets if it will only be for sleeping and they can Rome your room for nearly all the day ? Because I see lots of the wires tall cages but was just wondering if rabbit cages are ok bc someone told me they was?
mine has a big cage but is literally never in it haha we’re getting her door fixed on her room but she’s free-roam
what cage do you recommend for ferrets (my goal is to have them out unless i'm not home or alseep, I might work up to trusting them more)
I’m new to getting ferrets, but I’ve done a lot of research, I will be getting a ferret nation cage, will that be decent for 2 ferrets? I will be letting them out though as much as possible!
Celeste Novali i have 4 ferrets in one of the big 2 story ferret nation cage, i think that the ferret nation cage is the best option for them because it is very big and it is not closed in so they have great ventilation in the cage! make sure you have 2 litter boxes in the corners so they don’t go in other corners and clean them twice a day! we duct taped the litter boxes to the corners so they can’t move them. hope this helped you!
I have a question you know those small ropes that are for small dogs can you give them to ferrets
You mean like rope toys? Sure, if they're sturdy. They unravel fast though and you have to throw them out. I'd stick to hard plastic toys!
Thank you for answering my question
I let my girls out for at least 6 hours a day and thats only around the house for about an hour and in my room for the rest of the day. They have a pillow, two hammocks, blankets, litter boxes (even tho they use the corner s anyways) and ofc bowls and a bottle along with the water bowl. They came from a very bad house and now they are gaining weight and getting better fluff❤️ I love this video
First off.... Luv you!!! ... Good advice ... Second ...You are B.A.U.T FULL.. YOU ROCK!!! ...never let the haters win...and realliy don't mean that in a creepy way! luv the fur babies , wish I could post some of my Lucy...really need to catch up with tech!
